The liberals may not like my indigenous view. Conservatives may not like my white view, but I have held my tongue for years and things need to be said. <br />&nbsp;&nbsp; I am a white girl who grew up on the Standing Rock reservation. Yes - the reservation that is leading the charge against the Dakota Access Pipeline. My great grandfather homesteaded on the land and began raising buffalo. He and my great grandmother raised 10 children. Four of those children stayed on the land and raised cattle. My grandfather was one of them. My grandfather and grandmother raised two children on the land. One of those children was my father, who, along with my mother, raised me. We ran cattle on the land that my family owned and on land that we leased from tribal members. </span><br /><span style="font-size: large;">&nbsp;&nbsp; When my father was a child, the Standing Rock Sioux Tribe adopted him and named him "Tatanka" in honor of my great grandfather. He still has the headdress that he wore to the ceremony. My grandmother still has the powwow dress that she wore to the ceremony. Both the headdress and the dress are stunning, and are collecting dust. Not because anyone is ashamed of them, but because the fact that we have them, as white people, is not acceptable. These were gifts given to my family by the tribe. Why do we have to hide it?</span><br /><span style="font-size: large;">&nbsp;&nbsp; Because, unfortunately, there is a discrimination that is sent toward white people who live on the reservations. People think we stole the land, that we are treating tribal members badly, that we believe we are superior to the Natives. I can assure you I did not steal land, neither did my father, grandfather or great grandfather. My great grandfather bought it. Now, he was able to do so because of the Dawes Act, an act which was not the best thing the federal government passed. After all, it did take land from the Natives that were within boundaries of the reservation. But, I can also assure you that my great grandfather did not buy it with the intentions of sticking it to the Natives. My family has worked hard over the generations&nbsp;to establish and keep good relations with tribal members. Some years have been better than others. Some relations&nbsp;between specific tribal members and specific family members have been better than others, but all in all it has not been bad. That is the story that can be applied to every single relationship on the planet!</span><br /><span style="font-size: large;">&nbsp;&nbsp; I can assure you we are not treating tribal members badly. Mostly, we go about our business of raising cattle. I can assure you we do not believe we are superior to Natives. If we believed that, we would not have friendships with tribal members. </span><br /><span style="font-size: large;">&nbsp;&nbsp; Now, as a child, I was met with flat-out racism, but it was certainly not in abundance. The vast majority of tribal members I met were kind and gracious. They let me spend weekends at their homes with their children and my family would let their children come into our home for the weekends. I was introduced to delicious authentic&nbsp;Lakota foods and received some lessons in beading. </span><br /><span style="font-size: large;">&nbsp;&nbsp; I recall one friend, in a small town called Little Eagle. Almost every weekend, one of us was staying at the other's home. The most vivid memory I have of my time with her family was their love of professional wrestling, her dad's impression of the Ultimate Warrior (which still makes me laugh) and a prayer her dad said before we ate supper. He prayed for a cure for my Type 1 diabetes. I had never heard anyone pray for me to be cured before. They really gave me a home away from home. </span><br /><span style="font-size: large;">&nbsp;&nbsp; It is those times that construct most of my memories with the Lakota. The few times I was met with racism - those were a few bad apples. And those bad apples can be found among every race of people, but it seems nowadays those apples are more plentiful. </span><br /><span style="font-size: large;">&nbsp;&nbsp; However, the discrimination now is coming from the outside. It is coming from people who have a deep sympathy for the indigenous people and for the wrongs that the government did to them. There were wrongs - horrific wrongs. There is no argument about that. But, how is&nbsp;telling me and my family&nbsp;about perceived sins against Natives righting those wrongs? How is creating a greater divide between whites and Natives righting those wrongs? </span><br /><span style="font-size: large;">&nbsp;&nbsp; Do you think, maybe just maybe, you are making it worse? Do you think, maybe just maybe, you should work on your own discrimination against whites on the rez? Do you think, maybe just maybe, that might be a small part of bringing Native and whites together in unity? Something to think about. </span>Lana Bradstreamhttps://plus.google.com/115937642572244243415noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5717766919368361288.post-18646346464858956472016-11-02T12:13:00.004-07:002016-11-02T12:15:56.482-07:00Review: Swissvita Micrite 3D all Use Eye Cream<a href="http://www.tomoson.com/?code=TOP24f5d993ed415b8719bbfc7e30e41477" rel="nofollow"><img src="http://www.tomoson.com/images/front/pixel.png" style="display: none;" /></a><span style="font-family: &quot;georgia&quot; , &quot;times new roman&quot; , serif; font-size: large;"><span style="font-size: x-large;"><strong><u>I</u></strong></span> have a fear of dark puffy eyes.

I have combination skin, which means both dry and oily. The oily part of my face is primarily my nose, which tends to have blackheads - more than I like. Since I began using this, I notice I still have blackheads, but they are not showing up as fast as they used to. My skin definitely feels different when I use it. While it feels healthier (especially my nose), my skin does not feel as silky. It is still silky after I apply moisturizer (which you need to do after using the toner), but it is not as silky. However, I do love the lovely matte look it gives my skin. My nose is definitely not as shiny as it once was. I am not a fan of the smell. I wish I could tell you exactly what it smells like, but it is difficult to pinpoint. That being said, it does not smell so bad nor so overwhelming that I will stop using it. </span><br /><span style="font-family: &quot;georgia&quot; , &quot;times new roman&quot; , serif; font-size: large;">&nbsp;&nbsp; When you get this product, make sure you give it a good shake before you use it because natural separation will occur. After you wash your face, pat the toner onto your skin, avoiding the lips and eyes. Since it is a liquid, there is not a lot of density, so you will not need a whole lot. After you have your skin covered, let the toner dry and then apply a moisturizer. </span><br /><span style="font-family: &quot;georgia&quot; , &quot;times new roman&quot; , serif; font-size: large;">&nbsp;&nbsp; If you are like me and you are focused on good skin care, I recommend this. </span><br /><span style="font-family: &quot;georgia&quot; , &quot;times new roman&quot; , serif; font-size: large;"><em>Full disclosure: I was sent this product free of charge in exchange for an honest and unbiased review.</em></span><a href="http://www.tomoson.com/?code=BOTTOMfe825fa60f9cf6fc172f2260967cdf8c" rel="nofollow"><img src="http://www.tomoson.com/images/front/pixel.png" style="display: none;" /></a>Lana Bradstreamhttps://plus.google.com/115937642572244243415noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5717766919368361288.post-79633759711291861272016-10-31T13:14:00.001-07:002016-10-31T13:18:05.291-07:00Review: InstaNatural Cellulite Cream<a href="http://www.tomoson.com/?code=TOP47a14ba9b72defb04c6c012e79a05776" rel="nofollow"><img style="display: none" src="http://www.tomoson.com/images/front/pixel.png" /></a><span style="font-family: &quot;georgia&quot; , &quot;times new roman&quot; , serif; font-size: large;"><span style="font-size: x-large;"><strong><u>I</u></strong></span> can use all the help I can get when it comes to cellulite.

The joints on the arm of the lamp are strong. I actually stood this thing straight up and there was no giving whatsoever. </span><br /><span style="font-family: &quot;georgia&quot; , &quot;times new roman&quot; , serif; font-size: large;">&nbsp;&nbsp; The lamp itself has a full degree of motion. There is no place in your room that you cannot point the lamp, no matter where it is sitting. It is touch-activated. You simply touch the metal loop on the top to turn it on and off. If you touch the loop for two seconds while the lamp is on, you will activate the Eye-care Mode, which adjusts the lamp to the ambient light already in the room. You will know the Eye-care Mode is on when a green light appears by the loop. </span><br /><span style="font-family: &quot;georgia&quot; , &quot;times new roman&quot; , serif; font-size: large;">&nbsp;&nbsp; That is a wonderful feature to have, especially since this lamp can get incredibly bright. If you do not want the Eye-care Mode, but you do want the light dimmer, simply adjust it using the knob on top. There is nothing about this lamp that I do not love. I love the look. I love the function. I love this lamp!</span><br /><span style="font-family: &quot;georgia&quot; , &quot;times new roman&quot; , serif; font-size: large;"><em>Full disclosure: I was sent this product free of charge in exchange for an honest and unbiased review.</em></span><a href="http://www.tomoson.com/?code=BOTTOMa89c66eb81a6038fa02797c2e9565f4d" rel="nofollow"><img src="http://www.tomoson.com/images/front/pixel.png" style="display: none;" /></a>Lana Bradstreamhttps://plus.google.com/115937642572244243415noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5717766919368361288.post-2000735861985672572016-10-10T09:09:00.000-07:002016-10-10T09:09:41.465-07:00Review: Lia Medical Tourniquet Trauma Kit<a href="http://www.tomoson.com/?code=TOP4a48d65eea4eb1320fdf99f83fa7e58f" rel="nofollow"><img src="http://www.tomoson.com/images/front/pixel.png" style="display: none;" /></a><span style="font-family: &quot;georgia&quot; , &quot;times new roman&quot; , serif; font-size: large;"><span style="font-size: x-large;"><strong><u>I</u></strong></span> cannot stress how important it is to have a well stocked first aid kit in your house.

However, I acquired this Lia Medical </span><a href="http://amzn.to/2cqquLx"><span style="font-family: &quot;georgia&quot; , &quot;times new roman&quot; , serif; font-size: large;">tourniquet kit</span></a><span style="font-family: &quot;georgia&quot; , &quot;times new roman&quot; , serif; font-size: large;">. It comes with one tourniquet (obviously), one bandage and one emergency blanket. I am certified in first aid, so I took the classes and practiced tourniquets during the course. I am confident that I can use this kit if the need should ever arise - which I pray it does not. </span><br /><span style="font-family: &quot;georgia&quot; , &quot;times new roman&quot; , serif; font-size: large;">&nbsp;&nbsp; My husband wants to add this to his bug-out bag, which I am not opposed to. If a time should come when we do have to flee our home, I would prefer the tourniquet be in the bag. And if I ever should need it here at home, I know exactly where the bug-out bag is. It will take me just as long to get the tourniquet out of the bag as it would the closet. </span><br /><span style="font-family: &quot;georgia&quot; , &quot;times new roman&quot; , serif; font-size: large;">&nbsp;&nbsp; I made sure this tourniquet was not cheaply made. It would not be good if it would break in the middle of tightening it. My husband loaned me his arm and it passed the test. There were no problems, not even concerns that it might not hold.</span><br /><span style="font-family: &quot;georgia&quot; , &quot;times new roman&quot; , serif; font-size: large;"><em>Full disclosure: I was sent this product free of charge in exchange for an honest and unbiased review.</em></span><a href="http://www.tomoson.com/?code=BOTTOM4a48d65eea4eb1320fdf99f83fa7e58f" rel="nofollow"><img src="http://www.tomoson.com/images/front/pixel.png" style="display: none;" /></a>Lana Bradstreamhttps://plus.google.com/115937642572244243415noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5717766919368361288.post-50438974689620936212016-10-09T15:48:00.000-07:002016-10-09T15:48:52.809-07:00Review: Jackyled Reacher Grabber<a href="http://www.tomoson.com/?code=TOP8c5b98c99712dbbc229a717c22a43757" rel="nofollow"><img src="http://www.tomoson.com/images/front/pixel.png" style="display: none;" /></a><span style="font-family: &quot;georgia&quot; , &quot;times new roman&quot; , serif; font-size: large;"><span style="font-size: x-large;"><strong><u>Y</u></strong></span>ou know, I have always secretly wanted a </span><a href="https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01HNLJ1US"><span style="font-family: &quot;georgia&quot; , &quot;times new roman&quot; , serif; font-size: large;">grabber</span></a><span style="font-family: &quot;georgia&quot; , &quot;times new roman&quot; , serif; font-size: large;">.

And as long as they use the lever on the side of the handle, they should be able to pick up almost anything. I did not use the lever at first and I dropped a glass. It was a test. I have been able to even pick a coin up off of my kitchen linoleum floor and a full can of tomato soup from my cabinet.

I have lost weight since I began taking it. I have lost five pounds. So, there is proof enough that it is not just another empty weight loss supplement. However, I do not feel an increase of energy with this one. Before when I took forskolin, I felt a steady supply of energy throughout the day - enough to keep up with my three-year-old son. That&nbsp;is the only downside to this particular brand of forskolin for me. You might have another result. Everyone's body chemistry is different. After all, I am experiencing weight loss with the product. Now, I should note that this brand of forskolin does not claim to increase energy.</span><br /><span style="font-family: &quot;georgia&quot; , &quot;times new roman&quot; , serif; font-size: large;">&nbsp;&nbsp; With that being said, I would recommend you give this a try.

So, I wanted to give it a try. Let me just say - I made a good call. Let me explain.</span><br /><span style="font-family: &quot;georgia&quot; , &quot;times new roman&quot; , serif; font-size: large;">&nbsp;&nbsp; Over the years, I have built a tolerance to over-the-counter pain relievers (I started getting frequent migraines when I was in the fourth grade). I do not like taking more than two pills at a time because I worry about the long-term effect on my liver. So, when I got Flanax, I took two (as directed) for my headache. Within forty-five minutes, my pain had reduced. It was not gone, but there was a significant decrease. A&nbsp;few hours later when the pain started to build again, I took one more (the directions state that you should start with two, but do not exceed three within a twenty-four hour span). My pain relief continued throughout the day. </span><br /><span style="font-family: &quot;georgia&quot; , &quot;times new roman&quot; , serif; font-size: large;">&nbsp;&nbsp; I love the fact that this is also a fever reducer. My husband and I do not usually get fevers, but when we do, it really takes a toll. My husband usually sleeps throughout the day. I do not sleep, but my thinking becomes erratic. There is no sense going on in my thought process when I get a fever. I have not been able to test Flanax on fevers yet, but since it seemed to work with pain, I am confident it will work just as well with a fever.</span><br /><span style="font-family: &quot;georgia&quot; , &quot;times new roman&quot; , serif; font-size: large;"><em>Full disclosure: I was sent this product free of charge, and received compensation, in exchange for an honest and unbiased review.</em></span><a href="http://www.tomoson.com/?code=BOTTOM8145d9342d05d56347c37ec364e3cffb" rel="nofollow"><img src="http://www.tomoson.com/images/front/pixel.png" style="display: none;" /></a>Lana Bradstreamhttps://plus.google.com/115937642572244243415noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5717766919368361288.post-40024099457960053562016-09-27T13:14:00.000-07:002016-09-27T13:14:15.640-07:00Review: Olivia and Joy Control Top Panty Hose <a href="http://www.tomoson.com/?code=TOPde0e1643c2ad4e206eb80a2618556ff4" rel="nofollow"><img src="http://www.tomoson.com/images/front/pixel.png" style="display: none;" /></a><span style="font-family: &quot;georgia&quot; , &quot;times new roman&quot; , serif; font-size: large;"><span style="font-size: x-large;"><strong><u>I</u></strong></span> am not a big wearer of panty hose.

But I do not think that will be a problem anymore.</span><br /><span style="font-family: &quot;georgia&quot; , &quot;times new roman&quot; , serif; font-size: large;">&nbsp;&nbsp; First of all, I have long legs and more often than not, the crotch of panty hose fall much below where it should.

They fit perfectly. </span><br /><a href="https://d3dcqeuqjj4q5m.cloudfront.net/promotion_product_image/resize_0fb12b749841cf7ab94e95f959e3b9a3035cf08a5e28ca2738347ec246224696acd862dd256256.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://d3dcqeuqjj4q5m.cloudfront.net/promotion_product_image/resize_0fb12b749841cf7ab94e95f959e3b9a3035cf08a5e28ca2738347ec246224696acd862dd256256.jpg" style="max-height: 250px; max-width: 250px;" /></a><span style="font-family: &quot;georgia&quot; , &quot;times new roman&quot; , serif; font-size: large;">&nbsp;&nbsp; I am also not a fan of flesh-colored panty hose. I love panty hose with color, but if I am going to downplay them I stick to black. Hey. Black is slimming. My legs certainly look and feel slimmer when I wear these. </span><br /><span style="font-family: &quot;georgia&quot; , &quot;times new roman&quot; , serif; font-size: large;">&nbsp;&nbsp; I also need panty hose that do not snag and tear on everything. These have stood the test of two wedding receptions. If they can take that, they can take anything. Of course, you have to take care of the panty hose properly. For one - do not put them in the washer. Please wash them by hand. This will help ensure that they do not fall apart.

First and foremost, it is comfortable. Now, it is a stretchy plus-size belt. I have been losing weight and it did not stretch to accommodate my waist line, so I think I will get maybe six months worth of wear out of it. Which is unfortunate. I love the way it hugs my curves and there is no pinching involved. I certainly don't feel like it is trying to strangle me. </span><br /><span style="font-family: &quot;georgia&quot; , &quot;times new roman&quot; , serif; font-size: large;">&nbsp;&nbsp; The second thing I love about this belt is the look of it. I prefer black belts anyway, but the clasp is striking. It is very monochromatic, so it will go with any outfit you decide to wear. So far, I have worn it with a pair of jeans and a T-shirt and with a skirt and V-neck blouse. Pairing my knee-high boots with the skirt, blouse and belt really created a wonderful look. </span><br /><span style="font-family: &quot;georgia&quot; , &quot;times new roman&quot; , serif; font-size: large;">&nbsp;&nbsp; The clasp may look complicated, but it really isn't. It is quite easy to attach and detach. So easy in fact, I was afraid it would just pop off while I was wearing it, but it did not. All in all, wonderful accessory for your wardrobe.</span><br /><span style="font-family: &quot;georgia&quot; , &quot;times new roman&quot; , serif; font-size: large;"><em>Full disclosure: I was sent this product free of charge in exchange for an honest and unbiased review.</em></span><a href="http://www.tomoson.com/?code=BOTTOMc5fbc76300e6759343cd18e62ccf28fe" rel="nofollow"><img src="http://www.tomoson.com/images/front/pixel.png" style="display: none;" /></a>Lana Bradstreamhttps://plus.google.com/115937642572244243415noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5717766919368361288.post-90829996498289015362016-09-20T20:11:00.002-07:002016-09-20T20:11:56.486-07:00Review: Nutri Lifescience Nutri Testo<a href="http://www.tomoson.com/?code=TOPb008b41a9084e0dc71cb595d5765daf1" rel="nofollow"><img src="http://www.tomoson.com/images/front/pixel.png" style="display: none;" /></a><span style="font-family: &quot;georgia&quot; , &quot;times new roman&quot; , serif; font-size: large;"><span style="font-size: x-large;"><strong><u>W</u></strong></span>e are a household that loves supplements.

The wait was well worth it. It was not like drinking a 5 Hour or an energy drink. It was a steady energy that lasted throughout the day. Granted, neither one of us are playing a lot of sports right now. He needs knee surgery and I need hip surgery, but it sure is nice to feel like I can play a good game of volleyball without puttering out. It is important to note that while this might increase your energy, it is not to be used to lower the number on your scale.</span><br /><span style="font-family: &quot;georgia&quot;; font-size: large;">&nbsp;&nbsp; We have also both noticed a better night's sleep.

I particularly love the handle. It is not decorated in any way, but rather it is made to fit into a person's hand. The grip is incredibly comfortable. The blade however. I am not sure about the blade. Let me say this - if you do not have a dishwasher, this might be difficult to clean. There are holes on this blade, so the butter just stays in the holes. The first time I used the knife, I put it in the dishwasher afterward and it came out just fine. The second time I used it, I tried to hand wash it (even though I hate hand washing, I wanted to see how difficult it might be for someone to clean this). Let's just say it took a lot longer than your standard butter knife. So, I will be using this knife as the table butter knife for holiday feasts. It is lovely enough to do that.</span><br /><span style="font-family: &quot;georgia&quot; , &quot;times new roman&quot; , serif; font-size: large;">&nbsp;&nbsp; The honey dipper is wood, but the grooves are not as prominent as other dippers I have seen.

My last honey dipper broke, so I have been without one, but I will see how well this dipper works.

But, an added boon is that when the batteries die and you perhaps do not have any more, the sharpener does not need to just collect dust. It has a hand sharpening option.

I thought it certainly looked like fun and it also looked like something that I would relish. I must say that I have tried different rowing machines - in sporting goods stores, gyms and even people's basements. I love them all and I would love to get one of my own in my house. But, which one should I get?</span><br /><span style="font-family: &quot;georgia&quot; , &quot;times new roman&quot; , serif; font-size: large;">&nbsp;&nbsp; I have been looking at these </span><span style="font-family: &quot;georgia&quot; , &quot;times new roman&quot; , serif; font-size: large;"><a href="http://7-min.com/best-water-rowing-machine-reviews/">rowing machines</a></span><span style="font-family: &quot;georgia&quot; , &quot;times new roman&quot; , serif; font-size: large;">. I like the style of&nbsp;the First Degree Fitness Newport&nbsp;and it does not look like one of the bulky rowers I have tried. The WaterRower Club machine has more bulk, but it also has a wood look which makes it more aesthetically pleasing. Tell me what you think about <a href="http://7-min.com/best-water-rowing-machine-reviews/">these machines</a></span><span style="font-family: &quot;georgia&quot; , &quot;times new roman&quot; , serif; font-size: large;">, please.

It's too bitter and strong for me, but that does not mean I will not drink it. It just means I will use a little more creamer. My husband however, is a huge fan of dark roasts. It gives him the extra kick that he needs in the morning. </span><br /><span style="font-family: &quot;georgia&quot; , &quot;times new roman&quot; , serif; font-size: large;">&nbsp;&nbsp; So, my take on this coffee when it's black is that it is strong, not the strongest I have ever had, but it certainly has some oomph. I put a little extra creamer in my mug and then it was perfect. It had a smooth and bold flavor. My husband loved it just the way it was. It might not be his favorite coffee, but I think it definitely made the top ten. He drinks two mugs of it before he goes to work every morning. </span><br /><span style="font-family: &quot;georgia&quot; , &quot;times new roman&quot; , serif; font-size: large;"><em>Full disclosure: I was sent this product free of charge in exchange for an honest and unbiased review.</em></span><a href="http://www.tomoson.com/?code=BOTTOM969db8245e0857c3c5ef576d1662560a" rel="nofollow"><img src="http://www.tomoson.com/images/front/pixel.png" style="display: none;" /></a>Lana Bradstreamhttps://plus.google.com/115937642572244243415noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5717766919368361288.post-23852234506202585462016-09-09T06:48:00.001-07:002016-09-09T06:48:23.833-07:00Review: Dazzle Pure Artisan Soap<a href="http://www.tomoson.com/?code=TOP4c8304a11889028b66aceaf872f4ac49" rel="nofollow"><img src="http://www.tomoson.com/images/front/pixel.png" style="display: none;" /></a><span style="font-family: &quot;georgia&quot; , &quot;times new roman&quot; , serif; font-size: large;"><span style="font-size: x-large;"><strong><u>I</u></strong></span> came to a conclusion early this year. You can never have too much soap in your household, especially when you have a two-year-old boy. He gets washed multiple times per day - face, hands, baths.

It is also made with some coconut oil, which I am a big fan of. It does not have a strong scent. It is extremely subtle. I can barely detect it and I wish it was stronger. That being said, it is an excellent soap. It does not leave a soapy film behind and it also moisturizes. I am kind of surprised as to how well it moisturizes. I usually experience that kind of moisturizing with body washes. </span><br /><span style="font-family: &quot;georgia&quot; , &quot;times new roman&quot; , serif; font-size: large;">&nbsp;&nbsp; I wish these soaps were bigger.

I particularly love that there are no crevices or creases so that makes it very easy to clean. </span><br /><span style="font-family: &quot;georgia&quot; , &quot;times new roman&quot; , serif; font-size: large;">&nbsp;&nbsp; I cannot wait for this to be installed in my kitchen. It will give it a more personalized look. Plus, it will blow away the ceiling light I have now. I wish I could tell you more about it right now, but I guess everyone will have to go on a little faith here. I have read other reviews and no one has had problems with faulty wiring or connections.

One such gadget that has withstood the battle of time is this </span><a href="http://www.amazon.com/dp/B01EWPKXYG"><span style="font-family: &quot;georgia&quot; , &quot;times new roman&quot; , serif; font-size: large;">digital timer switch</span></a><span style="font-family: &quot;georgia&quot; , &quot;times new roman&quot; , serif; font-size: large;">.</span><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: &quot;georgia&quot; , &quot;times new roman&quot; , serif; font-size: large;"><a href="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-N_v6nIUba_s/V83hSS9VqdI/AAAAAAAADmg/YK6hN88_LhIXCpxSXQ4ej2fY4DwbJRh5ACLcB/s1600/resize_6df5b4a7ce1f008400fe4b7d72f215994fcbffec699fec2432228d804e9dec0b07e6a3a0256256.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-N_v6nIUba_s/V83hSS9VqdI/AAAAAAAADmg/YK6hN88_LhIXCpxSXQ4ej2fY4DwbJRh5ACLcB/s1600/resize_6df5b4a7ce1f008400fe4b7d72f215994fcbffec699fec2432228d804e9dec0b07e6a3a0256256.jpg" /></a></span></div><br /><span style="font-family: &quot;georgia&quot; , &quot;times new roman&quot; , serif; font-size: large;">&nbsp;&nbsp; At first, I was not quite sure where I would use this. A lot of our electronics are connected to power surge protectors. Eventually, I found one lamp with which I could utilize this switch. The lamp is in our living room and is usually one of the first lights that is turned on in our house every morning when people wake up. So, I plugged this into the outlet on the wall, plugged the lamp into the switch and then set the timer. Since people usually start stumbling out of their bedrooms at 7:30 in the morning, I set it for 7:15 a.m. </span><br /><span style="font-family: &quot;georgia&quot; , &quot;times new roman&quot; , serif; font-size: large;">&nbsp;&nbsp; When I went to bed that night, I made sure all the lights were out in our house. When I woke up the next morning, I was greeted with the warm light coming from the lamp. Since I am a fanatic about turning lights off in our house, I knew I did not have to freak out about someone leaving the light on all night. The next morning, I went out a little earlier - about 7:08. And I stood there, waiting to see if the light would turn on at 7:15. I was not disappointed. </span><br /><span style="font-family: &quot;georgia&quot; , &quot;times new roman&quot; , serif; font-size: large;">&nbsp;&nbsp; Setting the digital switch up was very easy. The instructions that came along with it were understandable. The only thing I have to complain about is I wish the switch was a little smaller. But, I recommend this.</span><br /><span style="font-family: &quot;georgia&quot; , &quot;times new roman&quot; , serif; font-size: large;"><em>Full disclosure: I was sent this product free of charge in exchange for an honest and unbiased review.</em></span><a href="http://www.tomoson.com/?code=BOTTOM5129fd1abcc9620ba5832cb14be23e72" rel="nofollow"><img src="http://www.tomoson.com/images/front/pixel.png" style="display: none;" /></a>Lana Bradstreamhttps://plus.google.com/115937642572244243415noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5717766919368361288.post-91513042774745404442016-09-05T13:49:00.001-07:002016-09-05T13:49:31.147-07:00Review: Swissvita Facial Cleanser<a href="http://www.tomoson.com/?code=TOP61b9418ebbc8d9052c17d15d784efa37" rel="nofollow"><img src="http://www.tomoson.com/images/front/pixel.png" style="display: none;" /></a><span style="font-family: &quot;georgia&quot; , &quot;times new roman&quot; , serif; font-size: large;"><span style="font-size: x-large;"><strong><u>I</u></strong></span> have never been too picky when it comes to facial cleansers. As long as it does its job and gets rid of any dirt or grime that is sitting on my epidermis, then I am happy.

I mean, the blackheads spotting my nose are still there. I still get the occasional pimple gracing my forehead or chin. So, this cleanser is not doing much for me in the ways of reducing acne. It is, however, doing a good job in moisturizing my skin. I have dry skin. I always have, so lotion is a way of life for me. </span><br /><span style="font-family: &quot;georgia&quot; , &quot;times new roman&quot; , serif; font-size: large;">&nbsp;&nbsp; I am still applying lotion after I get done using this cleanser, but not as much. My skin feels very soft and smooth after I wash, so I have cut my lotion application by half. The cleanser also claims to get rid of dull complexions. I have never really had a problem of a dull complexion, so it is not something I have worried about. </span><br /><span style="font-family: &quot;georgia&quot; , &quot;times new roman&quot; , serif; font-size: large;">&nbsp;&nbsp; I am on the fence regarding this cleanser. It is not the best I have ever tried, but it is not the worst. It is certainly worth checking out, though.</span><br /><span style="font-family: &quot;georgia&quot; , &quot;times new roman&quot; , serif; font-size: large;"><em>Full disclosure: I was sent this product free of charge in exchange for an honest and unbiased review.</em></span><a href="http://www.tomoson.com/?code=BOTTOM61b9418ebbc8d9052c17d15d784efa37" rel="nofollow"><img src="http://www.tomoson.com/images/front/pixel.png" style="display: none;" /></a>Lana Bradstreamhttps://plus.google.com/115937642572244243415noreply@blogger.com0
